Typical Jonah

One night I was telling a funny story about Jonah and Cody laughed and said, "typical Jonah."

Hallee and Wyatt loved playing with all of their toys.  All of the kids were entertained all day, it was great.

I love these two!  Hallee and Wyatt love to play dress up. 

I can't believe how fast Hallee is growing up.  She sure is a beauty and she always keeps us laughing. 

Matt had to go out of town for a few days while we were there, but we got to see him a lot on the days he was in town.  He just got a promotion at work, so he is really busy.  When he was home the four of us would go out to eat a lot and leave the kids home.  They preferred to stay home and we didn't complain!  It was fun to try some new restaurants.  One day Lori and I took the girls out shopping.  Keith went and saw a couple of movies that he has been wanting to see.  One night we were able to stay up late and play games, that was a lot of fun.  We always have a fun, relaxing time in Arizona.  We take it pretty easy and just enjoy a lot of laid back days.

Keith surprised us all and shaved off his goatee one day.  He has only done this three times since I have known him.  The kids were a little shocked! 

I loved to swim at night, especially when we would put the kids to bed and just us adults would go out and swim. 

One night we were all out swimming late.  Wyatt and Hallee had fun with bubbles.

It was nice when the sun was down and you could actually walk on the ground without burning your feet!

I'm so grateful that we have such a wonderful extended family.  My kids love all of their aunts, uncles and cousins.  It is so great to be around people who love your kids!  Matt and Lori are so great, we love spending time with them!

Elena and Caitlyn got obsessed with All-A-Dollar.  They found all sorts of make-up and beauty supplies that they just had to have.  They were constantly doing jobs for extra money and begging us to take them to All-A-Dollar.  I like to be the fun aunt so I would say yes and take them and let them get things.  How can you say no to these two?!

I loved watching Hallee warm up to Matt and Lori.  She is a tough cookie sometimes, but on our last night there she laid on the couch next to Matt and laughed and played with him.  It was so cute!

She liked watching a baseball game with him on his phone.  It was another great visit with Matt and Lori and their family.  We are so grateful for their hospitality and generosity.  We are excited that we will get to see them here in Utah in a few weeks!
